We are the real heroes of democracy - PDP

Leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has declared Nigerian citizens as the true heroes of democracy.

The party in a statement by its national publicity secretary, Olisa Metuh, said it is commending Nigerians for their support for democracy since 1999 despite challenges.
Metuh said the PDP is making the declaration after a thorough appraisal of the contributions of the people towards the sustenance of democracy in the last 15 years.
“Nigerians have demonstrated their commitment not only by continually trooping out in their millions to vote, defying the sun and the rains, but also in their patience, understanding and continued support for the unity of the nation and the government they love, despite the unrelenting efforts by unpatriotic elements to mislead them”, the party said.
The PDP stated with the support of Nigerians, its government has sustained the unity and corporate existence of Nigeria as one indivisible nation where all are free.
 “This is a loud statement by Nigerians that they are, and will continue to be with the PDP. They have continuously shown that the opposition is not an option despite their ceaseless change of identity which only betrays their chameleonic nature and lack of clear-cut agenda for the people”, the statement said.
The party attributed the support of the people to its strict adherence to the principle of internal democracy.
